Bat in a tree...

...and you were expecting the one that can fly.

Polaroid 195 w/ Fujifilm fp100c

Shadow...

Behind the curtain...

Happy Couple...

I hope to live long and find that special person to be able to take a stroll at the Public Market in Seattle.

Why did the Turkey cross the road?

Hmmm....

Bird Bath...

Sea Lion of Pier 39...

Take off...

Solitude of fishing...

Fun with Rocks...

I see a bird, two rabbits talking and a duck with a beret.  Kudos to the creative soul(s) who created this mini Easter Island statues

You will park there...

Soon to be a thing of the past...

Say cheese or Alpo...

Strike a pose...

How was your day?

"Well mom, you know..."

Look up...

Take time to just look skyward.

Keeping it clean...

Without even using water since the drought is now official in California.

Fangs...

Clean wheels...

Abstract Palace...

Hood Ornament...

I'm just thankful that he/she didn't decide to leave something behind !

Made to last...

50+ years old.  Built during an age where cameras were engineered to last forever.

Waiting for the right moment...

Point of impact...

Hitting the sweet spot at 70 mph.

Co-Driver...

Doesn't hurt to have another set of eyes on the road.

Beach via Polaroid...

President's Day 2015

(Polaroid Super Colorpack Land Camera + Fujifilm FB3000)

Small, Medium or Large...

Perhaps one day...

All Cancer Centers will look like this... no one around.
Unfortunately, this lobby at Stanford is normally buzzing with activity.

Solitude...

Sometimes just setting down a chair on the beach is the best

Be Happy...

Reaching up...

Towering above the rest to catch the rays of the sun.

Typical lunchtime scene...

(Leica D-Lux type 109)

Rolling art...

This beautifully restored 1965 Pontiac Catalina.  From an era where cars had style and model names.

Do Cats Dream ???

What do they dream about?  Maybe pirates?

Cat walkin'...

The neighborhood cat took the string and decided to take me for a walk.

We're walkin...

Mommy it's too cold...

Compared to other parts of the country, when the winds are gushing at 50 mph and the tourists are expecting California weather, it's COLD.

Happiness is...

Finding the throw blankets and taking a nap.

Power of Mother Nature...

You got it???

NO EXCEPTIONS !!!

Fisherman's Wharf Christmas...

Support local businesses...

Now that you have or about to have some holiday cash, please do what these good people did at Fireside Camera in San Francisco and did their holiday shopping in their neighborhood.

Every dollar you spend in a local independent business helps your own community versus giving it to some big conglomerate.

Is Christmas shopping over with yet???

Vive la Citroen !!!

Lacking common sense...

If you want to have a conversation... don't do it in the middle of the street!  These two were lucky it's still early in the morning.

DO THIS !!!

DO THIS!
It's the holidays. Hopefully all of you are capturing moments in time with your camera. Your child's first Christmas, a funny thing that happened while at the..., etc...

The DO THIS has to do with BACKUP.
Unlike the film days where you have the print and the negative, in the digital age, we live with files.

Tonight - HORROR. For some reason (probably user error), 1065 photos - gone. Those images contained the SF Giants 2010 World Series Parade and more.

Thankfully I still have a tech head brain and had backups of backups and those files are still there.

So... if you haven't finished with holiday shopping, do yourself a favor.... buy a hard drive or two and backup those important images

This is what I think of that...

A Kodak....no... Leica Moment

Being at the right place at the right time and with the right camera in hand.   Shooting a Leica moment of two special edition Leica's with a Leica M.  Life doesn't get much better.

Fascination and Focus...
